Creative Writing - Short Fiction (deadline: March 2011)

I'm editing an anthology of short fiction, for an American publisher, related to the Middle East/the Muslim world. Entries must be set in the region, and address the concerns of the region, though the characters (and the authors) can be from any culture or nationality. Translated works will be considered. Word count is not the central issue, though works of 2,000-10,000 words are more likely to be accepted. Send submissions as RTF or Word 1997-2003 documents. No abstracts or CVs are required. Deadline is March 2011. Please contact Andrew Madigan (amadigan@uaeu.ac.ae or andrewjmadigan@hotmail.com) at United Arab Emirates University for more information.
